Testo Christ Of The Nuclear Age

He burst on the scene in a craze of glory
the turbulent tail to a half told story
see him playing doctor with the mud and spittle
he's tearing the damned town right up the middle
he's the Christ of the nuclear age

Down at the strip joint where the sinners move
tell me man, do you disapprove? All the girls there say his love is the best
'cause he's no impressed with bottoms and breasts
he's the Christ of the nuclear age

Pick up the whip
get a good grip
the terror of the temple
one more trip
their hearts drip trouble
His blood boils like the sea
"say, are you taking the ship
or just walking?"

Some clean love came a tumblin' down
cracked its head on the cold ground didn't even have a home here to cry to
talk about tears, I said, "well here's my two"

Coming on
like a mad cop
like a sharecropper
with a cane chopper
he's the Christ of the nuclear age
come on
